Plague of cheaters/smurfs

[Sławomir Mentzen]

Is there any sort of Prime Matchmaking to stop encountering 50 lvl game destroyers who carry their team and ruin whole experience from playing?

[Kapusta]

Ubi don't care...

[Malarkey]

Don't give Ubi ideas. They'll monetize anything.

As for smurfs? There will always be smurfs I'm afraid, just know though "I'm a smurf" is a cheater's number one excuse. I'm not saying smurfs don't exist they definitely do, but a large part of them are in fact cheats masquerading as such.

I don't really mind smurfs that much, as long as I'm legitimitely beat I'm fine with it hell you may even learn a thing or two from that. Cheats should be their main concern, that's what's ruining this game.

i get that Battle Eye would have gotten the cheats/smurfs by level 150, but actually getting to level 150 takes too much time for it to be the minimum level for ranked. I myself just got to level 151 and have over 950 hours playing and if i just got to play ranked now, I would be royally pissed. making the ranked level maybe 65/70 might work as my friend is level 65 and still thinks he isn't ready for ranked yet. but making the ranked requirement 150 is too much imho.

Smurfing is a huge blight right now for the casual audience, but nothing can be done about it. Level 20s-30s absolutely destroying even high level casual players who have played the game for awhile. AKA: me.

I know the tired old excuse is "git gud," but it's kinda hard to when you only want to play the game for fun, but a level 26 with a Naruto profile pic is running in as Ash with godlike aim and pro-league situational awareness mowing down the entire defending team. Or vice versa with Vigil, everywhere at once.

Smurfing will always be a thing sadly, but it has been made so much worse with the ranking restrictions. Until they come up with a better system, smurfing will continue to get worse.

I got close to buying a smurf at one point, but I really would rather not give Ubi any more money. Kinda just stopped playing instead.

They're never going to have a better ranking system heads up

Or probably they will add it, but monetize it a lot, Ubi top executive / investors: "Oh you want to have fun, and play a balanced match? Sure it's just a small price tag of $100 dollars per week, that's without taxes of course "

Edit: "Also don't forget to buy all the elites, and limited time paid gamble boxes, aka loot boxes, fellow customer."

Is it just me or the problem of cheaters and smurf in every fps is blown out of proportion? Granted I only have 300-ish hours in the game, but so far I only met 1 cheater. As for smurf I don't know what to say because how can you be sure it's smurf and you just having a bad day. It happens sometimes where your aim/hearing/anything is bad because external factor like your mood.

Na this game is legit really bad for smurfs and cheaters.. You might not notice due to your MMR level ... I have well over 3600 hours in this game.. every time there is a sale ... the game just gets way worse ... Anything from Gold 1 to plat and above there are quite a few closet cheaters running walls and aimbot... Not hard to spot thanks to match replay now a days .. funny though .. Battle eye still does not see nothing XD

Seawolf is full of if you want to see how typically cheater communicates read his whole nonsense.

I find that majority of cheaters do not make it past level 50
Report everyone level 50 and under if UBI doesn't like it they should fix their crap than.

A level one should not be master of a map and knowing how to play.

This is literally what a new player under level 50 looks like

They majority of time are even worse than that.

You see a lvl 50 I don't care if they got 10 million hours in CSGO just wall banging , zooming around the map you found a cheater that needs to be removed from the game for the rest of their life.

In reality UBI should get the courage that Blizzard had and sue them for millions and millions of dollars. So their mommies and daddies after oweing debt for the rest of their lives will give the kids what they really deserve.

The truth is all ubi cares about is your dollars

*CLAP* *CLAP*

I saw ubi banned some toxic players that likely called out the cheaters that ruined this game.... well ubi did that as well cause tom clancy would be rolling in his grave if he knew half these operators.
